We have been hearing rumors that Nintendo will soon launch the Wii 2 console, and the latest news from Nintendo is a price drop on the original Nintendo Wii console.

Nintendo have dropped the price on the Wii to $149.99, and for this you get the console, in a choice of either black or white, plus Mario Kart and the Wii racing wheel for the game.

With Mario Kart Wii now included with the Wii hardware, players will be able to enjoy fun go-kart racing with Mario and all his Mushroom Kingdom pals right out of the box.
